Hangman Jury by Aerosmith - How to Play on Harmonica

In today's harmonica lesson we're looking at Hangman Jury by Aerosmith. We cover the rhythmic intro and the famous harmonica solo at the start of the song.

This lesson is aimed at intermediate harmonica players, but I'd still encourage everyone to give it a go and see how you get on. If it turns out to be a bit of a stretch, I'd recommend working through some of my beginner lessons first, then coming back to this one. Click here for my free beginner lessons.

You can follow the tabs with any key of harmonica but you won't be able to play-along with the original track unless you have a G harmonica. If you don't already have a G harmonica, here is a link to one on Amazon (you don't need to use this link; if you do I receive a very small commission at no extra cost to you): https://amzn.to/3Z55kH4
